    I've become addicted to your stories and your voice over the last few months. I've been listening to ASMR for 11 years and have switched to your sleep stories instead. I'm recovering from cancer and you are my absolute go to for relaxing at bedtime. So, thank you.

    I also rarely make it past the countdown!! I love the stories with the crackling fireplace background noises. Anything to do with books and bookstores. Maybe a story idea could be about a bookstore cat and its daily adventures with the customers and proprietors (or nightly adventures sailing with pirates, doing magic, flying spacecraft, meeting new people out of the stories in the books!). Thanks for all your hard work creating this content 💛💛💛💛

    🏆 I can’t thank you enough for this story.
    It was way more than a story.
    I will listen to this many times.
    Each person that received the book; I’m sure we all could relate to.
    I needed that.
    It helped me to make a huge decision to being brave enough to take the next step towards my mental health.
    You are a wonderful brilliant man💥😇

    Good morning Stephen, another great story. I know I haven’t written much lately but I’m still a daily reader. I have mentioned that a lot of your stories I read for afternoon naps or enjoyment they bring me joy and rest. When I’m going to bed for good l regularly listen to “COUNTING SHEEP” stories with count downs seem to put me out. I fall asleep during your relaxation period I believe because of the count downs. The other one that gets me the most is the Nidra meditation I listen to that at least four times a week. Well my friend thanks and a prayer for you and your family. Gary

  • @BulletPointFitnessPodcast
    @BulletPointFitnessPodcast Місяць тому +2

    A story idea for you Stephen! It's got some gaps to fill out, which maybe you can do if you like it.
    For some reason, this evening, as you mentioned story suggestions, I got some strong imagery of "The Private Sleep Detective". There's very light and gentle saxophone, to the backdrop of rain, very much a moody noir vibe. Perhaps we can hear the pitter patter of rain on his trilby and the hard shoulders of his trench coat. And this detective has the ability to solve mysteries by delving into people's dreams. Like a sandman that's out for good outcomes.
    I don't know, maybe not your typical style. But I bet, if you decide you like the idea, you'll eventually do something special with it.
    Sleep well Stephen 🙏✌️

    I always prefer the background music or other sounds to be very soft or silent. They sometimes detract from your soothing voice.

    As always, NICELY done Stephen! You are a very kind, loving soul! You are incredibly talented with a STUNNING imagination.Therefore, here's the request I have for you. (I got it several months ago). I'd like you to write an enchanted magical story about LIFE in the deep sea/ocean. How a teenage boy, living near to the ocean/sea, saves the life of a wounded dolphin. And when the dolphin is healed it takes the boy to have an incredible adventure down under the deep waters, where they find a secret entrance to a hidden city belonging to inner Earth civilization.

It would be so much better for me, and perhaps for some others too, to have background sounds of rain or a crackling fire. Music and tonality gets in my way for anything else.
    I hope I can tune in to your stories one day.
